Vince Gill's tele solo on Crossroads

TG · July 29th, 2005, 01:27 PM

I've been watching the Crossroads DVD and I'm really impressed by Vince Gill. Don't hear his stuff over here much.
I've been trying to work out some of the licks he's doing but the cameraman seemed to think it was the dobro player doing them and kept focusing on him instead of Vince. And even the bits I could see I can't quite work out.

Has he done any DVDs that show his guitar work better? Or are there any other players somebody could recommend who play a similar style?

I saw that and was impressed by his playing also. It took me a while to find a tab but I did. Here's what I came up with.

Well it's rainin' down in houston And i got holes in both my shoes
Baby's put me on the street She says "i'm through with you"
She thinks i'm gonna miss her Someone tell her that she's wrong
I'm goin' back to oklahoma, boys 'cause that's where i belong

I need one good ride I'll be satisfied Come on oklahoma borderline
If we roll all night She'll be comin' into sight Come on oklahoma borderline
G
Well now i don't need no texas girl Doggin' me around
I may be a okie, son But i've still been to town
Well those oklahoma city girls They always treat you right
Well tell mama that i'm comin' home (not sure of this line...) And i'm leavin' out tonight

I need one good ride I'll be satisfied Come on oklahoma borderline
If we roll all night She'll be comin' into sight Come on oklahoma borderline
G
So with two bucks in my pocket And my thumb stuck in the wind
When i cross red river, boys I won't be back again
Give me old back roads and truck stops And 18 wheels that whine
And some good ol' boy to take me To that oklahoma line
